CARLISLE AND THE REVENUE
from Statesville Landmark.

From Statesville Landmark
We are exceedingly pleased with the
editorial of the STATE CHRONICLE Of last
week on Speaker Carlisle and the internal
revenue system. The congressman from
North Carolina should not vote for Mr..
Carlisle for Speaker next winter unless
they can secure in advance from him con-
cessions on the internal revenue question
We do not mean anything wrong in this
We merely mean that Mr. Carlisle should
be made to pledge himself to do the clean
thing by the enemies of the internal reve-
nue. system as condition precedent to
their support of him for the speakership.
He gave them no chance in the last Con
gress and will give them none in the next
unless he is forced to- He is the natural
enemy of Virginia, North Carolina and
Tennessee interests, and the representa-
tives from these States should unite and
defeat him unless be will agree to consent
at the very least, to give the House an
opportunity to repeal the tobacco and
brandy taxes if it wants to do so. They
should not support Mr.. Randall for the
Speakers chair, for he is opposed to our
party's principles on the tariff question;
but they hold the balance of power in ,he
next House and should use it for the pro-
motion of the interests of their constitu-
ents These cannot be subserved through
Carlisle, unpledged, nor through any 9th
er man who would appoint as stubborn
and imprudent "a man as Mills, of Texas,
chairman of the committee on ways and
means.
We are addressing ourselves more par
ticularly, just now, to Messrs. Henderson,
Cowles and Johnston, of the seventh,
eighth and ninth districts of this State
and may add that public opinion will sus-
tain them in their refusal to vote for Car
Isle, even as the caucus nominee for
Speaker next winter, but that it will not
sustain them in blind and unconditional
support of any man who is committed
against the legislation which their people
desire above all things.

SOCIAL EQUALITY.
An Attempt to Force 1t In WadesbO1
Int

An Attempt to Force 1t In WadesbOro.
From Wadesboro Intelligencer.]
There was an attempt at social equality
at the Depot Hotel, this place, on We'd
nesday last. A troupe of theatrical vaga
bonds, en- route from Wilmington to Char
lotte, stopped for dinner, and black
wench accompanying the troupe Topped
herself down at the table, to the infinite
disgust of Col. Polk, and others who were
present. AS soon as the fact was brought
to the attention of Mr.. Drake, the sinking
varment was forced to quit the house or
go to the kitchen, but not in time to pre-
vent Col. Folks appetite from being spoilt.
When the troupe finished the meal,
burly ruffian and female virago, had
much to say, in regard to the treatment
which the Gladly" had received, declaring
she had not been treated right, that she
was as good as any of them, Or any body
else, and should not have been treated so
rudely. We doubt not for moment that
she was as good as any member of that
troupe, but if the manager will come this
way again, and make the same effort to
force a negro to the table with white peo-
plc-ladies and eentlemen-he will re-
greet 1t.

lake Of Zur. suddenly sank into the lake,
carrying with IL the roadway and forty
houses. Among the buildings was a

guests. The hotel, like the other houses,
vanished completely from sight and took
with II large number OF its In.
mates the most OF whom were in bed and
asleep There was scarcely any warming
OF the catastrophe, and II Is likely that
many OF those who pcrishcd never knew
what had happened. A. least one hun.
drcd lost their lives. Among those In the
hotel who failed to escape was NJ. Collin,
the president Of the Canton Of zug An
in FAINT was found alive and unhurt float

houses that were wrecked, but not en-
quilted.
